Five Star Swing played for us at our wedding reception. Prior to the event, Chris was prompt and helpful with the arrangements, and was really flexible about our timings, and agreed to play the songs from their song list that we particularly liked. On the day, the band played fantastically - I really enjoyed dancing to the music. Also, our timing changed on the day in a way that meant it would be difficult for the band to take a full break. Chris and the band were really great about this and agreed to shorten their break to fit in with our timings - a testimonial to how flexible they were! We are really grateful for this! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the band.
